Mum came to Tilsley House for respite care following a spell in hospital after a fall. Her stay in hospital had been particularly stressful and Mum hadn't slept well or wanted to eat during the time she was there. Tilsley House was the perfect haven for her after this experience. The managers of the
home were confident that they could support her with improving her mobility and could give her the care and attention needed in order for her to recover her appetite and strength. She has a lovely room with an en-suite, which Mum was able to access independently quite soon after her arrival. All staff are very kind and there is a welcoming, friendly, family atmosphere to the home. I am impressed by the way they work together, whatever their role, for the benefit of the residents.

My Aunt became a permanent resident at Tilsley House in July this year. She was diagnosed with Alzheimer's a few years ago and her move to Tilsley House related to her advancing condition and her having falls. As a family we cannot emphasize the wonderful care our Aunt gets. All of the care workers
are so kind and their experience shows. We are also impressed with the social activities they provide on a daily basis. Our Aunt has flourished, taking an active part in the activities and is now eating regular meals which she wasn't doing at home. The management are very visible and have been extremely helpful if we have needed to ask them anything about our Aunt's care. We would definitely recommend Tilsley House to anyone with a relative or friend who needs care.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback, Susan. We will continue to work daily to improve our care at Tilsley House and, indeed, in all homes within our company - Solomon Care Ltd.

Mum has been in Tilsley for 2.5 years and is 102 years old. She has a lovely room with an en-suite. Meals are lovely, with lots of tea/coffee throughout the day. The staff are very caring and Mum is very happy there. They always make us as a family very welcome. And keep us informed when she is unwell,
although there are not many days when one of us is not visiting. We also have meetings with the nurse from the GP surgery who visits the home regularly. I would recommend Tilsley to anyone looking for a home for their loved one.

Reply from Rizwan Govindji, Director at Tilsley House Care Home

Thank you for taking the time to send a review. I am so happy that you would recommend Tilsley House to others. This is a great acknowledgement for our staff who work ever so hard each and every day. We will take away your feedback and strive to improve our service continuously.

My uncle came to the care home straight from hospital following a fall. They did a great job of settling him in and making him feel safe despite his confusion. They made a real effort to get to know him and his interests. They were approachable and helpful with any concerns we had.
I would have been
happy to make this placement permanent however for convenience we moved him to a home closer to us.
The activity coordinator was particularly lovely and helpful. They all do a great job in difficult circumstances.

Reply from Rizwan Govindji, Director at Tilsley House Care Home

Thank you for taking the time to review your great-uncle's experience at Tilsley House. We hope he has settled in well at his new home but we are always here should you need us. We will continue to work hard to improve our service in areas you have identified. Regards, Director

My dad had passed away in January 2024, and Mum was in emergency accomodation. We had her with us for 3 days prior to my dad's funeral and I couldn't cope with her. So came to Tilsley House a day before she was due. I cannot fault the staff here. They are all so lovely and caring and very helpful. Lovely
family vibes, Mum loves it here, I am so glad we chose Tilsley House.

Our Mum was admitted into Tilsley House in June, via Pathway-3 from hospital. We can't believe how lucky we are as it's such a wonderful place. She is now a permanent resident and says, 'I couldn't be in a better place'. The team at Tilsley are so very caring, professional and gentle. Nothing is ever
too much trouble. Mum loves the food and the activities provide a great stimulation. The location is also perfect as we can borrow a chair to take Mum across to the park opposite or along the promenade which is just at the end of the road. Mum was always prone to dehydration but whilst she has been at Tilsley this has not been the case. We cannot thank the team enough for their care and attention - it's as though Mum has been given a new lease of life - which isn't bad at the age of 93! Thank you Tilsley House Team.

My dad lived at Tilsley House for nearly 2 years. He was very happy there and was very well cared for by all the amazing staff. He enjoyed daily life at Tilsley whether reading his paper, going for a walk over the park of listening to the visiting singer.
Dad was always treated with dignity and kindness
right until the end.
Thank you Tilsley.

My dad moved into Tilsley House in August 2022. From the moment we arrived, Dad was made to feel very welcome. He soon settled in and was happy to go for a walk most days in Clarence Park. Towards the end of Dad's life after being in hospital for a number of weeks he longed to return to "his forever
home" (Tilsley House). We cannot thank the management and all the staff enough during those last few days. They were so supportive and friendly and allowed us to visit Dad day and night. Thank you!

Mum moved into Tilsley House after living independently in her own home for 61 years, the staff were amazing so kind and caring making her feel so welcome. Mum was beginning to find everyday tasks increasingly difficult and the staff treated her with nothing but dignity and respect as they helped her
navigate her new life. Sadly she was diagnosed with end-stage kidney disease after a short time and we as a family with the support of the staff made the decision to keep her in Tilsley House. The kindness, care and love she received before her passing was outstanding and we as a family would like to thank the entire Tilsley House staff for everything they did for her and for us. Thank you.

My mother died in Hospital after an illness. The staff visited her and made a complaint when they found her distressed- the hospital tried to say someone was coming to change her but the care home staff did this. The hospital was unhelpful registering her death, despite the manager's efforts. Prior
to this, they kept Mum safe from covid and cared for her. I live in Australia and they always made me feel part of the family that was looking after her. With the difficulties with the hospital and registering Mum's death, the manager and her team have gone above and beyond what they needed to do and what was expected of them. I cannot recommend Tilsley House enough. Thanks to every one of the staff.

Many thanks for your kind words, we enjoyed having your mum here and she is extremely missed. We would like to wish you and your family the best for the future and thank you for choosing Tilsley House.

My stepfather has just moved into Tilsley House and the staff are amazing - so very caring and friendly. They have made my stepdad's move so easy and he has settled in so well and loves it there. He still has his independence but is now in a safe environment and he thinks the staff are wonderful and
the food is amazing.

Many thanks for your kind words. We are glad that your stepfather is settling in well and you are happy with the environment he is in. It is a pleasure having him here. Best Wishes, Tilsley House.

My father spent fourteen months in Tilsley House, this was during covid, so a very difficult time as I was unable to visit to settle him. The staff soon made him settle and feel welcome. Throughout her time here, he was well cared for and also my needs as his daughter are acknowledged and supported.
End of life care was exceptional and the staff could not have done more to make him comfortable, look after his family and explain the process, step by step to ease things for us. Thank you.

My grandad was a resident until he passed on 29/02/2022. The staff took care of my grandad extremely well and supported our family during his last few days. The end of life care they gave was respectful and compassionate. They allowed us to be with him 24 hours a day, providing us with emotional support
and cups of tea. Special thanks to the staff who made Grandad's time here comfortable.

We couldn't wish for my sister to be anywhere else as lovely as Tilsley House. The staff are so lovely and kind. Our relative is treated like a queen. We are made to feel very welcome, every single time we visit. Nothing is too much trouble. The staff always have time, patience, kindness and fun to
spare. Never change how this fabulous home is run.

In the main, fantastic staff, both helpful and friendly. Towels and washing changed daily. Food of good quality, served at regular times and good standard for such a large residence. You are made to feel welcome with a family feel. Entertainments such as art, cards, bingo or the odd quiz are both entertaining
and a lot of fun. There is singing or mime for us tone-deaf bods. Some folk even have the odd dance or chair hand jive. I believe, for myself, the stay here has been very good and helped me to heal, ready for home.

Seeing my Grandmother through 2021 has always been safe and friendly. I have not had any issues booking or seeing my grandmother. She is always happy with the staff and they are all friendly and loving towards her. I am very thankful that they have taken care of her so well throughout the pandemic.

The staff are invariably cheerful and helpful and the premises are light and airy and very clean. The kitchen is impressive and I am told that the meals are excellent.
The south-facing wall of the large sitting room has wall to ceiling windows which overlook an attractive garden which includes several
small trees. I am sure that this has a beneficial effect.

Happy with the care my mother gets, especially as she can be "difficult". Also was told when the moved in the bath would be fixed - 2-year on, it has not been fixed, she prefers a bath to a shower.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.674)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.674) out of 10 for Tilsley House Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 9 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.774 for Tilsley House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (82 Excellents x 5) + (24 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 106 Ratings = 4.774

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 4.9 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Tilsley House Care Home is based on 9 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 3.9

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 32 registered maximum number of service users is 6.4, which has been reached with 9 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
